The Houston Texans have made significant roster adjustments as of September 8, signing former Vikings center Gavin Gerhardt and quarterback Mark Gronowski to their practice squad. This decision resulted in the release of rookie defensive tackle Dominic Bailey, as reported by KPRC 2’s Aaron Wilson.
Bailey's departure comes after a short stint back on the practice squad, following his initial cut during the final roster decisions to meet the 53-player limit. The team also let go of Ka’ena De Cambra, who had only been signed a week prior on September 1.
Gerhardt, a seventh-round draft selection in 2026, is expected to bolster the Texans' offensive line, which now features him, Evan Brown, and Jake Andrews. Rookie first-round pick Keylan Rutledge is also part of the lineup. Gerhardt is recognized for his leadership skills and football intelligence, which the Texans hope to further develop as he integrates into the team's culture.
